TECH STOCKS SELL-OFF - GOLD COOLS DOWN TO $4,322: A BUYING OPPORTUNITY?

Release Time: 10:00, December 15, 2025 Issuer: Mr. Leon

MARKET OVERVIEW

1. Stock Market:

  • Vietnam Market: The market continued its sharp decline, retreating below the 1,650 zone, with increased liquidity indicating clearly rising selling pressure after three consecutive sessions of correction. Although the MA100 remains a key support zone, the rapid pace of the decline has made this level precarious and it may continue to be tested in early-week sessions. The next support threshold is the 1,610 zone – which previously helped the market recover in November 2025. The market is expected to potentially retreat to this area before finding balance and retesting the support capability of the MA100.

  • US Market: In the Dec 12 session, the US market corrected after hitting historical highs, with the S&P 500 falling approximately 1.07% to 6,827.41 points, the Nasdaq Composite plunging ~1.69% to ~23,195.17 points, and the Dow Jones Industrial Average sliding ~0.51% to ~48,458.05 points due to sell-off pressure in the technology sector, specifically Broadcom and major AI stocks. This decline reflects more cautious investor sentiment and capital rotation into other stock groups.

2. Forex:

  • EUR/USD: Dominant trend is Sideways. Daily resistance: 1.17500; Daily support: 1.17300. Consider Long positions if price breaks the daily resistance zone.

  • USD/CAD: Dominant trend is Bullish. Daily resistance: 1.37900; Daily support: 1.37500. Consider Long positions if price breaks the daily resistance zone.

3. Gold:

  • After a vertical rally to the peak of $4,350, Gold is entering a Correction phase and cooling down to around the $4,322 mark.

  • The Bullish structure remains very solid. Two important Demand zones have been identified at $4,280 - $4,290 and $4,270. If the price holds these levels... (text cuts off, implied: it is a buying opportunity).

4. Oil:

  • XTI/USD: Dominant trend is Bearish. Daily resistance: 57.90; Daily support: 57.20. Consider Long positions if price breaks the daily resistance zone.

5. Bitcoin: BTC is trading at $89,327, moving close to the bullish trendline (blue line) which acts as the final dynamic support. Above, the $92,000 - $93,000 resistance zone is weighing heavily on the price. BTC is trapped in an ascending triangle pattern. Warning: If the trendline (region of $89k) is broken, the price could slide deeply; conversely, a strong rebound is needed to break this uncomfortable sideways stance.

RECOMMENDATIONS:

1. XTI/USD:

  • Buy Stop: 58.00

  • Stop Loss: 57.10

  • Take Profit: 60.00

2. USD/JPY:

  • Recommendation: Sell at 155.529
